I joined WWOOF because I want to experience a simpler and more grounded way of living, close to nature and people. Over the past few years, I’ve been learning how to take better care of myself, using natural and homemade alternatives, and being more mindful of what I consume — in a world where so many things are industrial and harmful to our health.
WWOOFing feels like a meaningful way to continue that journey, while learning new skills, discovering organic farming, and contributing to projects that share these values.
It’s also a unique opportunity for me to connect with local communities, improve my English, and live an enriching adventure during my gap year in Australia.

I have raised my children. I have taught other children and adults. I am now ready for something new. Something that helps in looking after our planet.

We joined WWOOF to gain hands-on experience and learn more about farm life while enjoying the outdoors. With our positive and open attitude, we love meeting new people, working together, and spending time with animals. We are excited to experience Australian culture, explore different ways of living, and contribute to a friendly and welcoming community.

We are a couple living off grid on a hill in Royalla, just outside of Canberra. Our property is 300 acres of forested land. We are currently building a sustainable home using stone and hempcrete. We have a garden where we practice Masanobu Fukuoka's natural farming for vegetable growing combined with syntropic agroforestry. We are at the beginning of our journey and the soil is very depleted but we are already seeing good results in these methods. We have sheep, goats and chickens for our own production of meat, eggs and dairy products. There are a lot of farming infrastructure projects on our to do list and we love to make improvements to how we do things all the time. We get temperatures between -6 in the winter to 40+ in the summer. We have lots of opportunities to see local animals of all types.

I joined WWOOF because I am looking for a place to live and work to begin my adventure in Australia. I would like to discover the local culture as closely as possible, by sharing daily life with the people who live here.

My interest in WWOOFing is in part connected to my family background. When I was growing up, for around 10 years my family would make a ritual trip to Victoria to look after my aunt and uncle's farm (a property that also hosted WWOOFers periodically). My interest in sustainable farming practices probably began there, and latterly has become something I'm keen to know more about. With my plan to spend several months travelling interstate, help exchange/farm stay work seems to be a great way of getting to know new people, and provides a means to experience destinations for longer. I'm a diligent worker (not afraid of manure), receptive to learning new skills and I look forward to exploring new places.

  ABSOLUTELY NO SMOKING OR VAPEING ON THE PROPERTY. I prefer to breathe clean air. Read again so you are sure. PLEASE DO NOT BRING PERFUMED PRODUCTS [SHAMPOO, CONDITIONER ,BODY WASH , SOAP ,SUNSCREEN] I can supply an alternative. I have become highly sensative to "perfumed products" .People have not been getting the first message on my profile so PLEASE DO NOT BRING ANY BODY OR HAIR CLEANING PRODUCTS. I WILL SUPPLY THEM FOR YOU.    If there is someone interested in a long term place to live and learn about organic farming, I am open to that. There are areas of usable land that I'm not really able to keep up with, so they could be yours for growing"whatever" to make some income.  Please read section 7 of the guidelines for Wwoofers and understand it. Hi All you lovely WWOOFers. I'm especially looking for some long term people if they are around. I've been very fortunate to live in this beautiful part of Tasmania for 30 years and just love being able to share it with people from all over the world. There is 19 ha of farm to care for [some bush, pastures and extensive fruit and vegetable gardens]. Then there's millions of ha of stunning mountain and alpine wilderness to explore right behind the farm. Please come and enjoy life for a while. I prefer people to stay at least  one month and have a genuine interest in learning about sustainable farming and living.

'Little Farm' is on 17 acres on the eastern edge of Trentham in Central Victoria, one and a quarter hours north west of Melbourne. The area is known for its rich, red basalt soil, high rainfall, cold winters, beautiful gardens, tall trees and potatoes. It also grows superb blueberries and a small patch is well established here, yielding a crop offered for sale at local farmers markets. The property also has ornamental gardens under development and all horticultural pursuits have been conducted chemical free for the past ten years. Extensive mulching, organic fertilizers, worm farming and recycling are all used as restorative practices to improve the soil and plantings over time. There is a swimming pond for cooling off when the weather's very hot. Trentham has a supermarket, two hotels, great cafes, a neighbourhood centre, library, tennis courts, public pool, primary school and oval. All within an easy walk. I have two slightly boisterous, (but not big) dogs.

We are two highly motivated chefs, in partnership, in a specialised company supplying wild & heirloom produce as well as bespoke shelf items to the hospitality industry. THE MARKET GARDEN. We run a lovely 5 acre Market Garden in Romsey, around 1 hour from Melbourne. We grow Heirloom Vegetables, Zucchini Flowers and Flowers. We supply Venues and wholesalers, with Organically grown produce, delivering to Melbourne several times a week. We live in Romsey town in a large house with a garden. It's an easy walk down the hill to the pub and amenities. The pace is very enjoyable. The Macedon Ranges is a beautiful place to spend some time.

I joined WWOOF in hopes of developing my skill set further and learning more about organic farming practices. Growing up on a small berry farm, I feel most at home and comfortable working in a farm setting. I was excited to learn about WWOOF because it is such a great way to learn deeper about different farming techniques around the world, while meeting new people and having the opportunity to share knowledge and experience.

Experience the best of both worlds — coast and country. Enjoy a 3-day, 2-night stay at a beach house just 60 minutes from Melbourne, followed by a 5-10 day countryside retreat on our peaceful rural property 30 minutes from Bendigo, in the heart of Victoria’s wine region.

25 acres of stunning conservation land encompassing pasture, wetlands & native bush. We are right on the tranquil waters of Mangrove Creek where you can fish, swim and canoe all year round and we are surrounded by sandstone mountains, incredible bush and unique Aboriginal sacred areas. Great bushwalking all around! Volunteering includes weeding, gardening, making new garden beds, making compost teas, care of chickens and bush regeneration. There is an extensive bush food garden on the property. We also do lots of preserving produce and love making medicines, tinctures, salves etc. We also love eco-dyeing and have a big shed with lots of wood working equipment. We often do building and art projects as well. Accom for 1-6 people in the rustic separate farmhouse (complete with sauna!), or you are welcome to camp if you prefer. Children possible.

It’s great if you have your own vehicle but we can pick you up from public transport nearby. We have hosted young and older people from all over the world and most become like family. 🤗

I have joined WWOOF because I want to meet new people during my travels and help out where ever I can. Sustainability and nature is important to me, and so WWOOF is a perfect site for me!

Have recently left work for a longer period of time wanting to learn more about farm sciences like agriculture/horticulture/permaculture. Mainly wanting to pick up, understand, learn and adopt various farming mentalities, ethics, practices, skills. Want to support, meet and help farmers who do really need a can-do-attituder and are happy to share their ideas; passing on treasures knowledge.

We are so fortunate to live in paradise, high rainfall green pastures, nestled under magnificent mount Barrow. Usually once or twice a winter we’re treated to snow, adding a whole new element to our beautiful property. We proudly sit at our dining table and enjoy meals of all our own produce, from multiple vegetables to mouth watering beef. We have a closed in blueberry and raspberry enclosure ensuring our freezer is full and our cupboards stocked with preserves. We breed pedigree golden retrievers, black Angus cows, Birman cats, and light Sussex chooks go without saying, perfect entertainment for any animal lover. We have a permanent running creek, home for mountain trout and spectacular platypus who pop their delightful heads up every evening. Our house is quite large as our free range children have all left the nest. Leaving us with large empty bedrooms. Our wwoof guests are welcomed and treated as part of our family.

Our 100ac farm is situated on Deep Creek in the Macedon Ranges, about 1 hour outside Melbourne. We run livestock and grow vegetables for our own use. Animals include cows, alpacas, sheep, chickens, dogs and a pig. There are two of us living on this property, entirely off the grid.

I’m joining WWOOFing because I want to connect with people on a meaningful level, learn more about the Australian lifestyle, and experience everyday life in a different setting. I’m curious to understand how others live, work, and see the world. For me, WWOOFing is a great way to exchange ideas, learn new skills, and contribute in a hands-on way. I’m excited to be part of daily routines, help where I can, and share stories along the way. It’s not just about traveling—it’s about building connections and learning from others through real-life experiences.
